Anastasiia & Ewan’s big day on 25 June was more than a wedding ceremony…it was the joining of two cultures - Scotland & Ukraine 🏴󠁧󠁢󠁳󠁣󠁴󠁿🇺🇦🥰

We included traditions from both countries: a Rushnyk stepping ceremony; a Hand Fasting ceremony; a lovely Quaich ceremony using a gorgeous Distillery Exclusive Malt from Lagg Whisky ; and a Korovai Bread Ceremony! ❤️

We even had lilac Margaritas and pink Piña Coladas! 🍸🍹

Connor McEwan Photography captured the whole day beautifully and the ceremony was live streamed for loved ones in Ukraine who couldn’t be there 🙏🏼💞

Wishing the new Mr & Mrs Paton much love & happiness for the future! 🥂🥰
